you have got to be kidding me. just grab some random plumber off the street and tell him to use his 'common sense.'

i hate lawyers, but it would make more sense to have lawyers serve as 'permanent jurors'. at least they potentially understand the law at some basic level, and have basic reasoning abilities.

That is actually a decent argument. Judges are political appointments or "elected" (political parties exert ridiculous control over process and often nominate political hacks). Clerks are selected by the judges. Juries are the one piece that comes into the system from the outside. I still don't like them but it's not the biggest problem with our system.

CR. It's got to be a body with no accountability whatsoever, which in practice means a temporary body. Ppl here who don't try cases don't realize what gutless stupid sheep the vast majority of judges are.

And if you're going to have a body like that decide cases, it seems kind of cool and democratic (demarchic?) to have them be regular people more-or-less randomly selected, and *forced* to work -- so you don't just get the self-selected (and self-important) IRL gunners who voluntarily sign up for shit like that.

Think about how much better our POTUSes/Senators/etc. would be if the primary filter for getting to that level weren't naked ambition, shameless self-promotion, and tireless striving.
